Generalized additive model is a powerful statistical learning and predictive modeling tool that has been applied in a wide range of applications. The need of high-dimensional additive modeling is eminent in the context of dealing with high through-put data such as genetic data analysis. In this article, we studied a two step selection and estimation method for ultra high dimensional generalized additive models. The first step applies group lasso on the expanded bases of the functions. With high probability this selects all nonzero functions without having too much over selection. The second step uses adaptive group lasso with any initial estimators, including the group lasso estimator, that satisfies some regular conditions. The adaptive group lasso estimator is shown to be selection consistent with improved convergence rates. Tuning parameter selection is also discussed and shown to select the true model consistently under GIC procedure. The theoretical properties are supported by extensive numerical study.

Causal inference has been increasingly reliant on observational studies with rich covariate information. To build tractable causal models, including the propensity score models, it is imperative to first extract important features from high dimension
al data. Unlike the familiar task of variable selection for prediction modeling, our feature selection procedure aims to control for confounding while maintaining efficiency in the resulting causal effect estimate. Previous empirical studies imply that one should aim to include all predictors of the outcome, rather than the treatment, in the propensity score model. In this paper, we formalize this intuition through rigorous proofs, and propose the causal ball screening for selecting these variables from modern ultra-high dimensional data sets. A distinctive feature of our proposal is that we do not require any modeling on the outcome regression, thus providing robustness against misspecification of the functional form or violation of smoothness conditions. Our theoretical analyses show that the proposed procedure enjoys a number of oracle properties including model selection consistency, normality and efficiency. Synthetic and real data analyses show that our proposal performs favorably with existing methods in a range of realistic settings.
Statistical inference in high dimensional settings has recently attracted enormous attention within the literature. However, most published work focuses on the parametric linear regression problem. This paper considers an important extension of this
problem: statistical inference for high dimensional sparse nonparametric additive models. To be more precise, this paper develops a methodology for constructing a probability density function on the set of all candidate models. This methodology can also be applied to construct confidence intervals for various quantities of interest (such as noise variance) and confidence bands for the additive functions. This methodology is derived using a generalized fiducial inference framework. It is shown that results produced by the proposed methodology enjoy correct asymptotic frequentist properties. Empirical results obtained from numerical experimentation verify this theoretical claim. Lastly, the methodology is applied to a gene expression data set and discovers new findings for which most existing methods based on parametric linear modeling failed to observe.
Structural breaks have been commonly seen in applications. Specifically for detection of change points in time, research gap still remains on the setting in ultra high dimension, where the covariates may bear spurious correlations. In this paper, we
propose a two-stage approach to detect change points in ultra high dimension, by firstly proposing the dynamic titled current correlation screening method to reduce the input dimension, and then detecting possible change points in the framework of group variable selection. Not only the spurious correlation between ultra-high dimensional covariates is taken into consideration in variable screening, but non-convex penalties are studied in change point detection in the ultra high dimension. Asymptotic properties are derived to guarantee the asymptotic consistency of the selection procedure, and the numerical investigations show the promising performance of the proposed approach.
We develop a Bayesian variable selection method, called SVEN, based on a hierarchical Gaussian linear model with priors placed on the regression coefficients as well as on the model space. Sparsity is achieved by using degenerate spike priors on inac
tive variables, whereas Gaussian slab priors are placed on the coefficients for the important predictors making the posterior probability of a model available in explicit form (up to a normalizing constant). The strong model selection consistency is shown to be attained when the number of predictors grows nearly exponentially with the sample size and even when the norm of mean effects solely due to the unimportant variables diverge, which is a novel attractive feature. An appealing byproduct of SVEN is the construction of novel model weight adjusted prediction intervals. Embedding a unique model based screening and using fast Cholesky updates, SVEN produces a highly scalable computational framework to explore gigantic model spaces, rapidly identify the regions of high posterior probabilities and make fast inference and prediction. A temperature schedule guided by our model selection consistency derivations is used to further mitigate multimodal posterior distributions. The performance of SVEN is demonstrated through a number of simulation experiments and a real data example from a genome wide association study with over half a million markers.
We consider testing regression coefficients in high dimensional generalized linear models. An investigation of the test of Goeman et al. (2011) is conducted, which reveals that if the inverse of the link function is unbounded, the high dimensionality
in the covariates can impose adverse impacts on the power of the test. We propose a test formation which can avoid the adverse impact of the high dimensionality. When the inverse of the link function is bounded such as the logistic or probit regression, the proposed test is as good as Goeman et al. (2011)s test. The proposed tests provide p-values for testing significance for gene-sets as demonstrated in a case study on an acute lymphoblastic leukemia dataset.
